The Streets
For the first time ever performing ‘A Grand Don’t Come for Free’ in full
Lock down your aerial — The Streets are bringing A Grand Don’t Come For Free to life in Ally Pally Park next July as part of our Summer Season. For the first time ever, Mike Skinner and co will perform their landmark 2004 album front-to-back, in an unmissable outdoor show.
EXTRA DATE ADDED DUE TO PHENOMENAL DEMAND: Thursday 16 July
The Streets is the project of Birmingham-born multi-hyphenate Mike Skinner, whose sharp lyricism and genre-blending sound reshaped British music in the early 2000s. Fusing garage, hip hop and everyday poetry, The Streets captured the humour and heartbreak of modern life with rare honesty across five acclaimed albums, including the chart-topping A Grand Don’t Come For Free. From underground hero to cultural icon, The Streets’ influence continues to ripple through UK music and culture two decades on.
